Welcome

This is it, people.  I'm blogging.  Watch me now...

I've been reading various blogs for over a year now (mostly decorating/sewing/crafting blogs) and have thought to myself, "I could do that.  I could blog.  I do...stuff."  I've slowly been working up the nerve to create my own and finally received the good kick in the pants I needed to get started: I was told I had to.  As a school assignment.  No joke.

You see, I'm currently working towards my master in library science.  Hence, the wannabe librarian.  For one of my classes I have to create and maintain a blog.  This blog is technically for school, but I'm  genuinely excited about the project.  Like I said, I've wanted to create one for awhile.  Now I can say things like, "On my blog...." or "The other day, while I was blogging..."

Here's what you can expect from Checked Out:

1.  Sewing/craft projects
2.  Exciting travel adventure stories
3.  Book lists (I am a wannabe librarian, after all)

I hope you stop by again and check things out!  Ha...get it?  Check things out??  Oh, never mind...
